We have been coming to this trappers location since they first opened and have always loved it, but will never return to this location after our experience tonight. We experienced poor customer service including inaccurate information, bad attitude from staff, and an unnecessary wait. There appears to be no management and the staff is just not making effort. We arrived at 6pm and the restaurant was only 50% full but were told the wait would be 20 minutes. We specifically asked if they had teriyaki chicken before waiting as my husband does not eat any seafood. After waiting 40 minutes we were seated and again confirmed they had teriyaki chicken and steak before ordering drinks. They confirmed and took our drink order. Then when we went to order our food they said they were out of chicken and steak and only had salmon. At this point we had wasted an hour and had to leave. read more

Went in for Happy Hour and in hopes that server "Melissa" was there to make her famous lemondrops. We lucked out. She was there and did it again. This is the only reason we come in. Food is great too but server Melissa is fun and keeps us coming back. read more

It was first time at trappers. I did AYCE dinner. I most likely did not eat my money worth. I ordered spider rolls , salmon skin hand rolls, Mt Rainer, sear tuna, seaweed salad and crystal shrimps. I like spider rolls, crispy and rice was portion good. Salmon skin hand roll was also crispy and salty but not too salty. I did not like tuna. Mt Rainer was good, crystal shrimp in the middle with salmon and scallops on top. Service was good. We went for early dinner so there was no wait at sushi bar seats, you have to sit at sushi bar for AYCE. read more

I was craving sushi and stumbled upon this place since it was close by. It's nice that they have an all-you-can-eat option but there are two different prices for it since they offer different sections of fish so make sure you select which one you would like before proceeding. The food was pretty bland in my opinion and just did not taste that good. I'm not sure if it was where the fish was sourced but it just tasted off. I eat seafood/sushi at least a few times a week and it just didn't sit right with my stomach. The staff was kind when I arrived and was attentive. The restaurant itself was nice inside and the building outside was also nice. read more

My boyfriend and I have both ordered for DoorDash pick up from this location multiple times. Every time we do, we arrive a little after the estimated time it's ready. We are both aware estimates aren't always accurate. HOWEVER, it should not be so inaccurate that we are sitting there for upwards of 15-20 minutes. That is the literal point of ordering for pick up/ordering ahead. I'm convinced they don't start working on your order until you are there. This most recent time they made the incorrect roll so my poor boyfriend had to sit there for another 15 minutes. Not once did they offer/do anything for the wait or the fact they literally made it incorrectly. Do not waste your time and money here as it's clearly poorly managed. read more

Showed up on time for my pickup order on a quiet weekday. Was told to wait 20 more minutes, then after 45 minutes of confusion, they canceled my order completely. Kitchen had closed by then -- no food, no explanation. Terrible experience. read more

This sushi spot is pretty decent, but not authentic. I use to come here for the all you can eat sushi because it was the only place around that had that option. Every time I come here I always get great service, everyone's super friendly! The fish here is pretty fresh, but the salmon def doesn't have much of a taste which is disappointing. I can tell just by looking at it that it's not the greatest quality of salmon. Now their rolls are great , very flavorful. My favorite roll here it the Timmy roll. It's a fried roll and is fried perfectly when asked for lightly fried. There spicy scallop hand roll on the other hand is good but not amazing. I wish it came with raw scallops instead of cooked, and maybe a little less on the mayo. The one thing I reallllly love here is their deep fried crab, I'm still craving it to this day! read more

Best sushi around. Beeb coming here since the first one opened in Bonneylake, amazing environment and amazing food.

I never had eaten sushi before till Trappers. I loooove Trappers sushi! Their food is always fantastic. I highly recommend Tia the Salmon.

Food is good but service sucks... Its a small place so shouldn't be to bad but it kind of is. There are 5 chefs and its taking over 45 minutes for our food, mind you its a place that has 12 tables. Safe to say we wont be back. The waitress are pretty good but the chefs, they just chitchatting like no one is waiting for food. It should not take this long to get our food for an establishment as small as this location is. I've been to the locations in Kent, Tukwila and up north and this place has to be the worst. read more

New to the area and heard this was good so decided to give it a try. The quality and portions did not match the price. Miso soup was also not included which surprised us. Sumo sushi in maple valley is better read more

Trappers is one of my favorite restaurants. While I was enjoying a lunch date with my friend, I realized I have never shared a review for trappers. I usually keep to the Dragon, Bonny Lake, or Mt. Rainer. But this visit, the Monster caught my eye. Although I can't remember what all the ingredients were, it did have tuna, crab meat, and shrimp tempera. The Monster has now been added to my list of favorite sushi rolls. I also do not remember the name of the cocktail I enjoyed, but is similar to a tequila sunrise. Because I am celebrating my 50th birthday, I brought my birthday glass to our my drink into. Just for fun. read more

Trappers is the only place close to home so we've been going there for a while. Long story short, the food is good but the service tends to be terrible. Long waits in the lobby when they have empty dirty tables everywhere and relative to most sushi places the food always takes forever to come out. This week we tried Uber eats with them hoping it would be better. It was a disaster. Food we ordered at 6:30 made it to our house after 9:00pm!? The driver said he waited almost 2 hours for our food and kept getting told "just 15 more minutes." He said he hates picking up orders there. Once the food arrived it was cold and the portions on things like the edamame and cucumber salad were 1/2 what they are when we dine in. We are done with Trappers. read more

TLDR/ Hard Pass Food: middling at best, Service: Poor Meh. The sushi was blah. The service was also blah. The waitress seemed like she would rather have been anywhere else and we had to ask for all the condiments you are likely to find at most sushi restaurants. We somehow felt rushed the whole time even though it was a Sunday afternoon, when you never want to feel rushed. It's like they didn't want my money enough to let me enjoy my sushi. I know Covid is a thing, but she could have offered us wasabi or ginger instead of making us ask for it. For the 50+ dollars I paid for my sushi, I guess I just expected a bit more class. I probably won't be going back, because honestly there are better sushi restaurants that are closer to my house. After eating, I just sat there with my friend waiting for the check for what felt like forever. It was like while we were eating the server wanted us to hurry up but then once we wanted the check, she made us wait. I honestly wish I had not even left my house. What a waste of time, the only silver lining was seeing my friend, but neither of us enjoyed our meal very much, or the poor service that accompanied it. read more

I have to write this review while I am riding sushi high! :) No idea why they would only have 3 stars. Let's talk about the joy of this place: 1. Excellent service by the chefs ( Corey was funny, quick, explained things well, willing to improvise) 2. Service by the servers - fast, kept our drinks refilled and beverages coming 3. Sushi - now let's talk about this part! We did AYCE in the bar area. I expected to get mini plates of small helpings, but oh no, you get a full roll, and it is absolutely scrumptious! As you can see by the pictures, their rolls are loaded with goodies, rice is made well - and no complaints here. Next time, I think I'll ask for 1/2 roll, as I really wanted to sample things - but luckily 4 people in a party, there were plenty of samples to go around. The only reason I would not give this place a five stars - a five star sushi place should serve sushi as a piece of art. Perfectly proportioned, perfectly cut slices of fish - creatively displayed. So if that is what you are looking for, and are a presentation snob ( which is totally cool) maybe don't go here. If you love the Americanized version of sushi, with lots of it, well - Hello Friend - you have come to a great place. Itadakimasu. read more

Enjoyed another great evening with the staff at Trappers in Covington. Took advantage of their AYCE dinner option. While I can't eat a lot, everything is well worth the money! Our sushi chef Anatoli, did a wonderful job! From making recommendations based on our likes, to being very attentive and making sure we always had food in front of us. I have had the AYCE multiple times and tonight was the first time I found out that you can enjoy options from the lunch AYCE menu, when purchasing the dinner AYCE. THANKS Anatoli, for the information!! read more

Trappers sushi never disappoints! Unfortunately every time I come to the Covington location the wait times become longer and longer. It seemed they had enough hostesses & chefs just not enough servers. If you are going with just two people then I recommend sitting at the bar. There's plenty of parking as it's in a large shopping area but away from 272nd (a busy street) making it a nice quiet area. read more

This location is the only one I've been too but they are a chain. I love sushi and this is the closest spot to us. Would I go here if there were other good sushi spots in the area? Maybe but probably no. Last night we were there for my birthday. They were really busy and we order the all you can eat sushi. If you eat a lot of nigiri it's definitely worth the cost. We a lot a lot of nigiri so it was definitely worth it! The sushi rolls here have lots of different sauces on them. I'm not really into at that sauce. California sushi it definitely different than Washington. A lot of the rolls here have cream cheese and are batter fried. It's not for me but apparently it's popular with someone. I order the rolls there but I alter them a little. One star off for just how slippery and scary the floors are here. I won't go here in the rain. I noticed last night that they added tons of rugs all over walk paths but it's horrible while you are sitting there and feet, table and chair continue to slide around. And I won't even tell you how ugly I looked getting up with my chair slipping and me almost falling. read more

Great place to enjoy sushi even if you are like me and like your sushi cooked (lol) The staff are very nice, and they try to seat you as quickly as they can. read more

Yeah, I know, it's a franchise and I typically don't review franchise locations. But Trapper's is a little different since each location is owned by the parent company thus far. Stopped in with my wife while in the neighborhood, seemed like a good way to let some of that I-5 rush hour traffic die down. This was my first time visiting this location, I've been to several others around the area and am a regular at a couple of them. there's not much here you wouldn't expect from Trapper's. The decor is the same as other locations, the only difference is the layout. The menu and all that are also the same. COVID protocols have the "all you can eat" bar in a bit of a tailspin, so when we heard it would be roughly 45 minutes to an hour for two seats there, we just grabbed a table and moved on with life. I love some all you can eat Trapper's, but not that much. We flipped the script and started with dessert, ordering the Mochi Flight. Having never ordered this before, it was quite fun. We each had two flavors we liked more than the other two, which worked out well because they were not the same two flavors. We both also agreed that they actually got a bit better after "melting" just a touch too. My wife got her typical Thunderbird roll, minus the Shrimp and wrapped in a soy wrapper. I know, it seems odd, but she doesn't like seafood, so basically she builds a grilled chicken roll. Don't knock it 'till you try it. This also shows the extent Trapper's will go to customize an order. Keep that in mind. I settled on a Thrill, a Rammi and a Skywalker. I like 'em hot. Honestly tho, that Rammi wasn't as hot as I was expecting. The menu said "Kamikaze-hot Spicy Shrimp" and they weren't really that hot. Still a good roll, I'll order it again, just not "Kamikaze" hot. Staff is always up to Trapper's standards, very friendly and attentive. I'm never displeased with a Trapper's location at all. This place continues to be something I look forward to every time, no matter what location. read more

We wanted to do all-you-can-eat sushi dinner, and usually go to the Kent location. But we were starving, and didn't want to risk waiting for a seat at Kent, since they seem to always be busy, so we decided to check out this location. We got here around 5pm on a Sunday and there after a few seats available in the sushi bar for all-you-can-eat. The place stayed busy, but not crazy busy where people were waiting for seats. I started with the Soft Shell Crab and Gyozas for appetizers and then we started ordering the sushi rolls. Everything I ordered was good; I mean, we didn't come for authentic sushi, we just came to stuff our faces. But I still find their sushi tasty since I'm not a real sushi person and don't care much for raw fish. And I didn't care for the Vader Roll. It's avocado and cream cheese tempura-battered and fried, topped with scallops; I didn't like the texture, it was too mushy for me. I really like that they have so many sushi options to choose from on their menu. Sometimes I feel like I'm spending more time reading their menu trying to decide what to order next than actually eating. Service is great and friendly, including our waitress and the sushi chefs. I left very satisfied and very full...maybe too full. I was seconds away from slipping into a food coma; it hurt to move. I definitely need a little break from all-you-can-eat sushi, but will probably be thinking about it again not too long from now. read more

My family loves this location. Excellent sushi and good service Lots to choose from and all is fresh. The restaurant is clean and smells good for a sushi place read more

The food there is always a 10/10. The vibes in Trappers are always good. To get your money's worth I'd recommend all you can eat lunch, because it is on the pricey side. My go to is the Rock and Roll and the Bonney Lake. They also have good gluten free options. read more

Eeeeverytime we come the service is slow and food takes forever to come out, even when the place is empty. Disappointing because it's the closest sushi spot to me and the food is yummy but it's definitely not worth all the wait. Chefs will be hanging out instead of making sushi while you wait for your order! Left my seat and came to Applebees instead read more

I like the sushi but it is expensive for what it is. They offer the standard kinda of sushi and it all tastes pretty good but I don't think it tastes as good as it costs. I will get it if I am really craving sushi as it is the closest to me but I try to go to other spots that taste a bit fresh or offer more options. read more

We took a table for 6 yesterday. Received a very warm welcome and the food was excellent. Staff were very attentive to our needs. The variety of sushi was impressive and the presentation was beautiful. We also enjoyed the sake selection, which complemented the sushi perfectly. The ambiance of the restaurant was cozy and inviting, making it a great place to relax and enjoy a meal with family. Overall, we had a fantastic dining experience and would highly recommend it to others. read more

Beware: The restroom in this place is absolutely disgusting, after the first time, I never went back because of it. They should consider grabbing a bottle of Clorox and disinfecting that filthy bathroom. Theirs what appears to be feces in the bigger stall on the wall. read more

I got from Trappers in Covington. Let me tell you it tastes as bad as it looks. Fish is mostly just fat, it tastes not fresh, avocado is disgusting. I ordered this same roll many times in tukwila trappers location and it was always good.

Pretty good! The food was great, service was good! Great stop whilst shopping... one thing would be the lighting, could be a bit brighter but quite romantic, unlike the terribly bright lights at the Enumclaw location! read more

Great service while sitting at the bar and the sushi was great. Kiara was a fantastic server.

My favorite sushi ever! I've always been seated quickly and the food has always come out quickly too.

We love it here! It has a lot of seating and unlimited sushi option which is fun. Our favorite items are the Bonnie Lake, Trump roll and the mile roll. They also have seasonal specials every time we come, which read more

Customer service is great! I usually go to the Kent location, but I love Covington's layout. I like how they separate the sushi bar and it's not smack dab in the middle of the restaurant. I also love that they have their own parking lot. I tried the baby octopus from the all-you-can-eat dinner menu and wasn't a fan of it. They fried the octopus for too long and had too much sauce drizzled on it. I might give it another go at the Kent location, but we will see. Definitely coming back to this location in the future read more
